Safety precautions The refrigerator is operated through a 220- 240VAC/50Hz power supply. Abnormal voltage fluctuation may cause the refrigerator to fail to start, or damage to the temperature control or compressor, or there may be an abnormal noise when the compressor is operating. In such a case, an automatic regulator shall be mounted.A dedicated socket with reliable grounding must be provided for the refrigerator. The refrigerators power cable is fitted with 3-cord (grounding) plug that fits a standard 3-cord (grounding) socket. Never cut off or dismount the third pin (grounding). After the refrigerator is installed, the plug should be accessible. Care for the power cordHold the plug, not the cord, when unplugging the refrigerator. Ensure that the power cord is not trapped by the refrigerator. Do not step on the power cord. Take care not to roll over the power cord or damage it when moving the refrigerator away from the wall. Damaged power cordWhen the power cord is damaged or the plug is worn, turn off the refrigerator and consult an authorized service agent for replacement If coal gas or other inflammable gas is leaking in the vicinity of the refrigerator Turn off the valve of the leaking gas;Open the doors and windows; Do not unplug or plug the power cords of the refrigerator or any other appliance. Unplug the refrigerator for the following reasons: Cleaning or maintenance; Lamp replacement Defrosting ·Cleaning Defrosting the freezer The freezer defrosts automatically. No manual operation is needed. Cleaning The refrigerator should be cleaned regularly to prevent bad stored food odors. For safety, unplug the power cord before cleaning the refrigerator. Clean the refrigerator with a soft cloth or sponge with warm water (can be added with mild detergent). Dry water droplets on the refrigerator surfaces with a dry cloth. Use of the cleaning filter (on some models) The design service life is from 5 to 6 years. But as the kind and concentration of odors in each refrigerator is uncertain due to different operation condition and environment, we recommend you to set the replacement cycle within 3 years. After prolonged use, you can put it under sunshine for 30 minutes to recover the deodorization effect. To clean, please use slow water flow. The refrigerator is very heavy. When you are moving it for cleaning or repairs, take care not to damage the floor. Keep the refrigerator upright during moving. Do not move the refrigerator by rocking it to avoid damage to the floor. Do not spray or flush the refrigerator with water to avoid impact on its electrical insulation property. Do not clean with hard brush, wire brush, detergent powder, gasoline, amyl acetate, acetone and similar organic solutions, warm water or acid or alkaline solutions. Please clean with special refrigerator detergent to avoid damage. Do not touch the cold iron parts with wet hands, otherwise your skin may stick on the cold iron parts. When cleaning, do not clean the cold glass shelves with warm water. Otherwise the glass may break due to sudden temperature change and cause personal injury or property loss. Note Always keep the door gasket clean. 21
Icemaker use instructions (only on models with an icemaker) Preparations before using the icemaker Cut the water pipe to desired length while ensuring it free from excessive bend. Generally its total length is not more than 5m. Excessive longer pipe may reduce water pressure and, as a result, the water output flow-rate and ice-making capacity; The water pipe should be away from any heat sources as it is not heat-resistant; The water pipe should be installed and tested by authorized professional personnel; The icemaker should be connected to a water source of a pressure between 1.5bar and 7bar; Cleaning the ice cube trayTake out the icemaker assembly from the refrigerator. Turn the icemaker over and you can see the ice cube tray. Pull the elliptical fastener of the icemaker in direction . Take out the ice cube tray in direction . After cleaning, install it back in reversed direction Precautions Never install the icemakers water tube in an area with the ambient temperature below 0 to avoid icing of water in it. The icemaker will start ice cube making when the internal temperature reaches or is below - 12 . (If the icemaker is used for the first time or after an extended period of vacation, the first loads of cubed ices should be discarded as there are impurities in the water tube) After the appliance is located, the water tube should be properly arranged to prevent it from being crushed. Installation of the icemaker can only be carried out by an authorized service agent. This icemaker can only be supplied with drinking water. Operating principle of the icemaker 8 cubed ices are made in every cycle. The ice making capacity depends on ambient temperature, door-opening frequency, water pressure, freezer temperature and other conditions. To ensure that the storage box is fully filled with cubed ices, arrange the cubed ices in the drawer frequently. As the icemaker makes 8 cubed ices in one cycle, it is normal that some of them stick to each other (This can be improved by decreasing water supply duration). NoteFor a newly installed refrigerator, please let the appliance operate for 24 hours before making ice. If this is your first icemaker Some “crack” sound may be heard in the process of ice making. Dont worry, its normal. Cubed ices stored for an extended period may become opaque or emit a strange odor. Please empty the cubed ice storage box regularly and clean it with warm water. Before putting the box back, make sure to cool it down and to dry it under sunshine. Otherwise cubed ices may stick on the box. If you do not want to use the cubed ice storage box for an extended period Please take out all the cubed ices from the storage box and wash the box with warm water. Wipe the box with a dry towel before replacing it to the appliance. After that, turn off the valve between the water source and the appliance.If you do not use cubed ices frequently soft 20 Safety precautions Never store inflammables, explosives or corrosive materials in the refrigerator.Do not store medicines, bacteria or chemical agents in the refrigerator.

Freezer storage precautions Hot food should not be stored in the refrigerator until it has cooled down to room temperatureFood cut into small portions will freeze faster and be easier to defrost and cook. The recommended weight for each portion is less than 2.5kg. Its better to pack food before putting it in the freezer. The outside of the packing must be dry to avoid bags sticking together. Packing materials should be odor-free, airtight, non-poisonous and nontoxic.In order to avoid expiration of storage period, please note the freezing date, time limit and name of the food on the packing according to the storage periods of different foods. Only take the required amount of food from the freezer. Defrosted food cannot be re-frozen unless it is first cooked, otherwise it may be less edible.Do not load excessive quantities of fresh food in the freezer. It is better to refer to the cooling capacity of the refrigerator. (See “Technical data”.) DMYDMY 19
Tips on food storage in the fridge storage compartment For turnip radish and other similar vegetables, please cut off their leaves before storage so as to prevent the nutrition from being absorbed by the leaves.Defreeze frozen food in the fridge storage compartment. In this way you can use the frozen food to decrease the temperature in the compartment and save energy. Some vegetables, for example, onion, garlic, ginger, water chestnut, and other rhizomatic foods, can be stored for long periods at normal temperature. There is no need to store them in the refrigerator.The metabolism of vegetable marrow, melons, pawpaw, banana, pineapple can be quickened in the refrigerator, so it is not suitable to store them in the fridge storage compartment. But storing green fruits in the refrigerator for certain periods can promote its maturing. 18 Placing environment Leveling of the cabinet The refrigerator should be placed on a flat and solid surface.

Preparation prior to use Remove all package parts Please also remove the foam base and the adhesive tape fixing accessories. Check accompanying accessories and documents Check the items inside the package box against the Packing List. Please inquire with the purchase shop if there is any discrepancy. Install the handles (AFD631CX/AFD631CB/AFD 631CS/AFL631CB/AFL631CS /AFD630IX/AFT630IX) Take out the two handles from the accessory box and insert them in the handle seats respectively as shown in the figure. Secure the handles on the doors with the supplied (4) screws from bottom to upper direction. Move the refrigerator into a proper location (See section “Placing environment”) It is advisable to clean the cabinet before use Please clean the inside and outside of the refrigerator with water before putting into any food in it. Idle standing After the appliance has been leveled and cleaned, let it remain idle for at least 6 hours before switching it on so as to ensure its normal running. 8 Fridge storage precautions Hot foods must be cooled to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator.Clean the food and dry any droplets on it before placing in the refrigerator. Food to be stored should be properly sealed. This will prevent moisture in the food from evaporating and prevent them from spoiling.Sorted storage of food. Food to be stored should be sorted according to their category. Food consumed daily should be placed on the front part of the shelves. This can avoid unnecessary delays in door opening as well as expiration of the storage period because you forgot to eat it. Do not store excess quantities of food. Food should be stored with spaces in between them. This allows cold air to flow smoothly and therefore obtain better storage results.Do not place the food too near to the inner walls. Do not store foods with high moisture content clinging to the inner walls. Otherwise they may freeze to the walls. Place food a little away from the inner walls. Avoiding food (especially oil food) contact with the inner liner directly, as oil can erode the inner liner. So its better to clean the oily dirt whenever it is found. Note 17
